him mystically as the Son of his love so the promises are made and given over to him of all good he takes all the promises of good from God for us and then they are made to us as we are in him He himself is the first promise that runs along in all the Scripture and all the promises of Christ are yea for whatsoever was promised of Christ before he came it was fufilled when he came for all types were fulfilled in him and all Prophecies and all promises they were all accomplished in him All types whether personal or real For personall types he was the second Adam Adam was a type of him he is the true Adam He was the true Isaac the ground of laughter He is the true Joseph advanced now to the kingdome to the right hand of God he is the steward of his Church to feed his Church here and bring her to Heaven with himself afterward He is the true Joshua that brought Israel out of the wildernesse to Canaan he brings us from Moses from the law to heaven he is the true Joshua that brings us through Jordan from death and miseries in this world to heaven He is the true Solomon the Prince of peace so all personal types of Kings and Priests as Aaron was a type of him c. they were yea in him they were fulfilled in him And all reall types he is the true Mercie-seat wherein God would be heard and prayed unto for he covers the Law the curse of it as the Mercie-seat did He is the true brazen Serpent that whosoever looks on him with the eye of faith shall not perish but have everlasting life He is the true Mannah the bread of life that type had its yea in Christ. He is the true sacrifice the Passeover Lambe the Lambe of God that takes away the sins of the world if our hearts be sprinkled with his blood the destroying Angell hath nothing to do with us The Passeover hath its yea in him therefore that which is affirmed of the Passe-over is affirmed of him Not abone of it shall be broken that is attributed to Christ that was performed in the type that is applied to Christ that was spoken of the Passeover to signifie the identitie of the type and the thing signified He was the yea of that of all comfortable types that were real personal all have their yea in him Therefore saith our Saviour Christ the last words of his almost upon the crosse All is finished all the types real and personal And all promises and prophecies have their yea in Christ. The first promise what was it but Christ The seed of the woman shall break the Serpents head it was nothing but Christ it was yea when he was born and when he died he crushed the Serpents head By death he overcame him that had the power of death that is the divel So the promise that was renewed to Abraham In thy seed shall all nations of the earth be blessed that is in Christ. And so to David that he should come out of his family And that particular promise of I say that a Virgin should conceive And the Baptist points him out Behold the Lamb of God All the particular things that befel Christ in time they were prophesied of before and Christ was the yea of all that is all had their determinate truth in Christ when he came This is one reason why S. Paul saith All the promises in Christ are yea whatsoever was promised concerning Christ or foretold it was yea in him concerning his birth and the place of it concerning his death and the manner of it concerning his resurrection and ascension concerning his offices all was foretold as we see in Scripture in the New Testament it is the foot of diverse verses that It might be fulfilled so this that was foretold in the Old it was fulfilled in the New So Christ is the first promise and whatsoever was said of him is Yea and Amen Whatsoever was spoken of Christ it was Yea in the Old Testament and Amen in the New it was made to them in the Old Testament and performed in the New And what is the Old and New Testament but this syllogisme He is the Blessed seed that is the Son of the Virgin Mary born in Bethlehem that shall come in the end of Daniels weeks that shall come when the Scepter shall be departed from Juda c. He is the true Messias the true Christ saith the Old Testament here is the yea Amen saith the New Testament to this But Christ is the Son of the Virgin Mary he suffered these things that it might be fulfilled so all is Amen in the New Testament I say this is the main reason that all is built on He in whom all these agree is the true Messias But saith the New Testament all these are Amen in Christ therefore Christ the Son of the Virgin Mary he is the true Messias We see whatsoever was prophesied concerning Christ himself was yea And not onely so but all the prerogatives and good things that come by Christ are yea they are undoubted in Christ and they were yea before he was he profitted before he was he was yea to Adam because however he that was the seed of the woman came not till the latter end of the World till 4000. years after the beginning or thereabouts yet the faith of Adam and of Abraham made him present Abraham saw Christs day and rejoyced There was a vertue from Christ to all former ages they all had benefit by Christ as it is proved at large Heb. 11.
